    My bumper support bar is all rusted out and will need to be replaced. My OEM bumper is also in rough shape with large dents and rust.

    Figure while I'm replacing the support bar ($100), I should look to see if there are replacement aftermarket bumpers that don't even need this support bar as they themselves are structural. If I spend a few hundred more dollars on a bumper instead of replacing this support bar, I could also replace my OEM bumper while I'm at it.

    Not sure what is out there that doesn't need the factory support bar. I don''t need anything super heavy duty or the "off road tactical" look, but would like rugged without spending a ton of $
    Needs to work with the factory tow hitch, which is still in decent shape. I did the frame recall and for whatever reason the hitch and bumper support were not in scope.
